Episode 10

1 SWORD GAI The Shiryu is crying again.
The Shiryu was crying again? Yes.
It seems to be getting louder.
I see.
I've heard there's another, inferior version of the Shiryu.
Yeah.
Dad told me about it.
Maybe this Shiryu is crying in search of its fellow.
Is something so inhuman as that even possible? Excuse me.
Your expected visitors have arrived.
I see.
You want to build an orphanage? Yes.
There's a great building for sale, formerly an elementary school.
It’s abandoned now, but I believe the location and size are perfect.
It's in a beautiful place, surrounded by nature.
I'm sure the children will love it.
Indeed! That's wonderful! Japan's birthrate is declining, so children are a valuable resource.
And above all, it would make me happy to help unfortunate children! Really? Thank you so much! I see.
You want to build a nursing home for senior citizens? We want to give those who have bettered Japan a chance to spend a happy retirement.
That's right.
There is no greater happiness than to help lonely elders! Thank you! And regarding the building to utilize, we found the perfect one.
Wonderful! This is Sayaka, what are you doing? Father.
Are you thinking about Gai again? Gai and I have been together ever since we were kids.
And then he just up and leaves? Don't you understand? Gai is guided by the destiny of the Shiryu.
Why did you shape the Shiryu into an arm? Did you know this would happen? Gai What's going to happen to Gai? Gai is trying to live as a sword.
I simply offered a helping hand.
What's that mean? Gai's a normal person! He can't live as a sword! A sword is fated to kill from the moment of its birth.
But with a sheathe, it may decide its fate.
If Gai is an unsheathed sword, with humanity as his sheathe, he may be able to slice open his fate.
Which of these fates will you choose, Gai? I know him.
I'm the only one who knows the real Gai.
Hey, Gai, you're still you, right? The boy who saved me when we were kids.
That day Gai ran away, I chased after him.
Gai, where are you? Come out, Gai! Gai? Gai! Oh no! You're bleeding! I'm fine.
Let's go, Gai.
Let's go home.
Gai came back to protect me that day.
He shed blood for my sake.
I can tell.
Gai is looking up at the same moon I am.
You're sure you don't want to go to a hospital? This is not oww.
Chrysalises heal fast.
Well, if you're worried, try harder to comfort me.
I got hurt protecting you, after all.
I didn't ask for that.
You're no fun.
A full moon, huh? Did you know the light of the full moon is good for wounds? Never heard that before.
I bet.
It's my personal view.
Why did you protect me? Because you're weak, of course.
I'm weak? Yeah.
Incredibly weak.
Are you messing with me? No, I'm quite serious.
Is there a girl you like? Well? No.
Sayaka was her name, right? No.
Is there anyone you want to be with? I've been alone since I was born.
And I always will be.
That's an easy way to live.
Only a child thinks it's their problem if they live or die.
What are you saying? You have nothing to protect.
No one to love.
Which means you can't protect yourself.
Gai, that's why you're weak.
Well? Perfect for an orphanage, right? I can just see the happy children! Yes, truly.
No, it should be a retirement home.
I think it's the perfect place to spend a quiet retirement.
Right? No, it should be an orphanage! Orphanage! It should be a retirement home! Retirement home! It's such a nice place, though.
Quiet, and with lots of greenery.
-Tokumitsu, my sketchbook.
-Yes, sir.
An orphanage A retirement home Shinohara! Kurata! I have an idea! This! Look at this! This is Yes.
We can just combine the retirement home and the orphanage! The elderly can give the kids lots of attention, and it'll be like they have grandkids! It's two birds with one stone, right? -Shall we do it then? -Let's work together.
Splendidly done, Mr.
Shin.
I'm sure your father would be very happy.
I hope so.
Both of them are right in their own way.
Sometimes combining two opposites is what opens the way.
That's what I think, Tokumitsu.
Is it just me, or has Sayaka been gloomy lately? Hey, Sayaka! Sorry, sorry.
I was just saying that you've been gloomy lately.
That's not true.
What is it? Don't hide it.
Let's go somewhere to get it off your mind.
Let's take the train.
I want to try that cake shop I saw on TV, you know? I saw that! It's run by a pastry chef who won a huge award, right? Sounds great! You should come with us for once, Sayaka! Yeah, you're right.
Maybe I'll go, too.
Seriously? You never say that! Let's do it! It's been a long time, Kazuma.
Glad to see you're doing well.
You as well, Mr.
Kigetsu.
You look younger each passing year.
What are you talking about? I already got one foot in the grave.
I came today to discuss Soin.
I have no words to apologize for the trouble we caused.
Don't worry about it.
The dead are my specialty.
I gave him a proper burial.
A shame.
But to think he failed to notice the Busoma lurking in his shadow.
We still have much to learn.
So, what happened to that Busoma? I'm not sure.
It disappeared after fighting Gai.
-Gai? -Yes.
He went with the Shoshidai, but beyond that The Shoshidai.
So he's a Chrysalis, then.
An impure being that will someday become a Busoma.
Don't talk like that.
Both the Shoshidai and you Gabi wish to defeat the Busoma.
You should work together.
We do not use weapons.
All we use in battle are the bodies given to us by God.
We are different from the Shoshidai.
But not everyone can be like Lady Himiko.
That is why we endure harsh training every day.
Weapons were made to kill men.
And thus, those who wield them are damned.
Who knows what Gai would say hearing that? This Gai, what is he like? Someone born with a curse.
His eyes shine like a silver blade.
I love it! You got some good meat.
It's got the right amount of marbling for sukiyaki.
There's no chives.
Chives? Yeah.
You need chives for sukiyaki.
Go buy some.
Just shut up and eat.
If your wounds are healed, shouldn't we be leaving? They hurt! They still really hurt! Is this fun for you? It sure is.
A lot more fun than napping at Shoshidai HQ.
If you hate it so much, why join the Shoshidai? Damn, if only I had those chives.
Edible chrysanthemum is better.
-Chives.
-Chrysanthemum.
Wait, it doesn't matter! I'm asking why you joined the Shoshidai.
You know the answer.
To survive.
Survive? Yeah.
We Chrysalises will someday become Busoma.
Going into cold sleep at the Shoshidai can delay that.
Why do you fear becoming a Busoma? As a Busoma, you cease being yourself.
It's natural to fear it.
You're scared of losing yourself? I sure am.
I want to stay myself a long time.
Every minute and second that I can.
I don't understand.
Why cling to yourself? That's why.
That's why you're weak.
I told you that before, didn't I? Well, no matter.
It was a long time ago Everyone, this way! Hurry! Damn it.
Do you want power? If you want to survive, take me in your hand.
Kill.
If you wish to survive, kill everyone.
-Hey, over there! -A survivor! Kill him! Kei.
Don't let the weapon use you.
Use it for the one you love, the one you want to protect.
You lack that, so you're weak.
Well, anyway Go get some chives! This is so good! It's so sweet! -I'm so glad we came! -That one looks good too! Right, Sayaka? Oh, yeah.
-Here, try this one too.
-Okay.
That was a nice idea you had, Mr.
Shin.
To be expected from the next head of the Matoba group.
It was nothing that special.
Please sign our petition! Please sign our petition! Um, what petition? That was delicious.
Sayaka, let's come back, okay? Yeah, I had fun today.
Thank you.
We're going to hang out a while more.
Yeah, see you later.
What train do I take home? Um, excuse me! Can you sign this petition? -Petition? -Yes! Izumi Park, where they intend to build a condo building, has been a very green place, where locals love to relax.
Is it fine to lose such an oasis? No! We need to let these foolish politicians hear our voices! Please help by signing! S-Sure.
Thank you! Now then Hey.
You alone, miss? Let's hang out! You're ignoring us? Th-That's not it.
That's a violation of our rights.
You're under arrest! P-Please stop.
Come on, just come-- Stop it! Who're you? She's upset.
If you'll try a crude pick-up Then please help by signing! -Huh? -What? What's his deal? You asshole! Stop it! Stop it, please! Violence? Why is this happening? Violence is the dumbest act in the world! It solves nothing! It only creates more violence! Shut up! Are you okay? Um, I'm sorry! No, don't worry about it.
It's not your fault.
I just can't forgive people like that.
Jeez.
What a weirdo.
Don't worry about it.
Forget it, check out that girl! I like her.
You alone, miss? Let's have some fun.
Very well.
She catches on quick.
I guess I'll go first? Does it still hurt? H-Help me! S-Someone-- Wh-What is What is this? What was I doing before? I don't remember at all! Well, no matter! Let the game begin! G-Gai? The Shiryu? Jeez, where the hell did Gai go shopping? Hold on.
Are you Miura? Miura was this one's old name.
I am Zsoltgewinn.
I see, so that's how it is.
Didn't think it would be you.
You did a lot for me.
But I'll give you a peaceful rest by my hands.
You as well soon enough.
W-Wait! Damn it! I can hear the Shiryu's voice.
Who are you? You're I'm the heroine, bitch! I met you before, right? Well, it doesn't matter.
Midoriko, the strongest, will kill you! The Shiryu.
Ow He's leveled up! Gai? Oh no! Blood! It's nothing.
Gai, let's go.
Let's go home.
Stop it.
I've got nowhere to go home to.
-Gai! -Stay away.
I'm fine being alone.
Gai.
Everyone, take your seats! Listen up.
I have a new student to introduce you to.
Everyone, get along with him.
I'm Shin Matoba.
Nice to meet you all! Subtitle translation by Adam Lensenmayer
